- W2503484811 abstract "This paper explores a theatre work that evokes a paradigmatic story of the diplomatic gift and an occasion of international symbolic exchange. A giraffe, captured in its first years of life in 1826, was offered up from the Pasha of Egypt to King Charles X of France. Two decades earlier Napoleon had engaged in a war of aggression in Egypt and Syria, seeking to block British interests in the area, while securing French access to trade routes to Asia. The animal was transacted as part of a complex theatrics of appeasement, and was the first live giraffe seen in France. The event became an exemplary staging of colonial aesthetic combat. The animal succeeded in taking France captive, and the events precipitated a cult and a style (a la girafe) that dominated French fashion for the years that succeeded." @default.
